1.Effect of GBE50 on L-type calcium current and cytosolic[Ca~(2+)]_i in ischemic guinea pig ventricular myocytes
Chinese Pharmacological Bulletin 2010;26(3):329-333
Aim To observe the effect of Ginkgo biloba extract 50(GBE50)on L-type calcium current and cytosolic[Ca~(2+)]_i in ischemic guinea pig ventricular myocytes.Methods Single ventricular myocytes were isolated by enzymatic dissociation. I Ca-L was recorded by whole-cell patch clamp technique in voltage clamp mode.[Ca~(2+)]_i was detected by laser confocal micros-copy and represented by relative fluorescent intensity (FI).Results During ischemia, the peak Ca~(2+) current was reduced, and the I-U curve of I Ca-L was shifted upward.50 mg·L~(-1) GBE50 reversed the change induced by ischemia(n =6, P >0.05).After perfusing ischemic solution for 12 min, intracellular calcium concentration was increased(n =10, P <0.01).After perfusion with ischemic solution containing 50 mg·L~(-1) GBE50, the increase of intracellular calcium concentration was markedly inhibited(n =10, P >0.05).Conclusion GBE50 can reverse the decrease of I Ca-L and partially inhibit calcium overloading during ischemia.

Objective To evaluate the efficiency of Ginkgo biloba extract 50 (GBE50) on learning memory ability and inflammatory response in hippocampus of natural aging mice, and explore the underlying anti-aging mechanisms.Methods 16-month-old ICR mice were randomly divided into three groups:model group, GBE50 low and high dose groups. 1 month mice were as normal group. The mice in GBE50 low and high dose groups received GBE50. The mice in the normal and model groups received solvent (1%CMC-Na+) by intragastric administration. The Morris water maze test and step-down test were used to assess behaviors of the mice. Immunofluorescent staining was used to detect the number of Iba-1 positive cells. The enzyme linked immunosorbent assay was used to determine the expression of TNF-α and IL-1β.Results Compared with normal group, escape latency and swimming distance in the Morris water maze test in the model group increased (P<0.05);latency shorted and error times decreased in the step-down test (P<0.05);the number of Iba-1 positive cell in the hippocampus CA1 in the model group increased considerably (P<0.01);TNF-α expression was in a general upward trend while IL-1β increased apparently (P<0.01). Compared with model group, escape latency and swimming distance decreased in the Morris water maze test in GBE50 high dose group;latency and the error times increased in the step-down test (P<0.05);the number of Iba-1 positive cells decreased (P<0.05). TNF-α expression showed a downward trend and IL-1β expression decreased in GBE50 low dose group (P<0.05). Conclusion GBE50 can delay aging and increase learning memory of natural aging mice.
